Post March, it has been observed that all production‑published Power BI reports are refreshing with the warning message “Refresh completed with warnings.” There are no errors in the reports, and the report front end is functioning as expected with no visible issues.

Has anyone encountered this before or been able to fix it? Any advice or guidance would be highly appreciated.

    Hi Shekhar Kumar

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum

    The message “Refresh completed with warnings” in the Power BI service means the semantic model refresh succeeded but Power BI detected non‑fatal issues during processing. Data is updated, but some calculations or objects are problematic and can lead to incorrect or blank results.

    From the warning details in the screenshot, examples of issues that cause this status include:

    • A DAX expression referencing a column or table that no longer exists (for example, Report Date in dim_date_view).
    • Measures whose values can’t be determined because the referenced column doesn’t exist or there’s no current row.
    • Other issues such as data type mismatches or outdated gateway versions can also generate warnings.

    To address this:

    1. Open the semantic model in Power BI Desktop.
    2. Review the DAX measures and calculated columns mentioned in the warning details and fix or remove references to missing columns/tables or invalid functions.
    3. Re‑publish the updated semantic model to the Power BI service.
    4. Run another refresh and recheck Refresh history to confirm the warnings are gone.

    Even though the reports appear to work, leaving these warnings unresolved can cause unexpected results or future refresh failures, so they should be corrected.
